Damn, that sucks. :-\ Out at 15 turns? I'd hardly say that's enough time to enjoy oneself.

Argh. This is why I need to get myself to stop playing Dom 3. Strategically, this is a good move to make. I get a bunch of provinces, get rid of a neighbor who could be problematic, blah blah. I just don't feel good about beating up another person, especially someone who hasn't played with the B12ers for a while and whose skill/experience is on the same level as mine or a little lower, and (really) especially this early in the game. I guess there's always a nation or two that get knocked out really early, but... :-\

Oh well, hopefully I'll remember next time I think about joining up a MP game.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

This definitely isn't the game you should be playing if you want to be nice to people, but yeah I kind of feel the same way. I didn't realize it was going to be 3 v 1.

Definitely there's always some pressure not to rush people early and let them enjoy themselves. This particular situation, however, was bound to end this way. Pangea found itself surrounded by other players and with limited expansion possibilities, aggression(on Yomi in this case) was a logical next step.
Unfortunately for puntocom, I had better luck with diplomacy than him, securing some form of help from both of Pangea's neighbours.

If you want to beat up on me, mister Bluerobin, feel free. It's only a game after all.  :)

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Furthermore, Bishop Bombulum has been promoted and put in charge of the overall diplomatic efforts of the Republic of Ermor. If you've got a surplus of fire gems, swing by and see if we can't make a deal!

Hmm I wish there was a changelog for Forbidden Friendship somewhere... I need to see a forging list. I guess I get to go trawl through the mod file. Actually I think it's just CBM as far as forging goes, so I'll start there.

Alright, arena death match! I'm pretty sure it's too early for anyone to be sending horror mark spam, so I guess I'll actually participate.

Eggs Benedict does not like wasting his Sauromancers, so I don't think he'll be sending anyone.  :P

I seriously think Hella Jeff should have won that. Bad luck, dude!

Also, I'm a massive derp - I did the turn at about 3pm GMT today, but forgot to send it in until now. *cringe*

Only three contestants? You guys are a bunch of wimps. The mark of the champion is worth it in this mod.
